The Valuation Office Agency decides council tax banding for each property, and Dartford appeals go to the Valuation Office Agency if you think the band is wrong. Council Tax itself is then charged based on the band the property falls into, using the property’s value as at 1 April 1991.
| What happens | How it works |
|---|---|
| Who sets the band | The Valuation Office Agency places every property into one of eight bands, from Band A to Band H |
| Basis for the band | The property’s value as at 1 April 1991 |
| If you think the band is wrong | You can appeal to the Valuation Office Agency |
If you want to see how the charge for each band is set in Dartford, the council publishes the annual Council Tax charges for Dartford and the parishes on its council tax pages.
